Morbid (2022) - One story x4

On Halloween four - not very likeable - teenage girls get together round one of their houses and play a mysterious boardgame which brings out their worst fears.  Simply plot for a simple film.  There's really not much on offer here.

The opening was quite promising with two young boys trick or treating the girl's house - I genuinely laughed at the gag at the end of that scene.  However, that part of the film was just a throw away to the main meat of the story.

The rest is about the four girls, only one of which you really get to know anything about in terms of character and backstory.  The other three are just there to er, get scared and act bitchy I guess.

For a short film it takes a while to get going and when it does it's effectively the same film/scenes played out four times, i.e. once per protagonist, as they're individually stalked through the same house by their own personal fears.

There's not an awful lot of gore here and the most expensive 'special' effect in this low budget effort seems to be a colour-changing LED bulb that's constantly flashing over the set.

That's about it - not much to say about something that effectively repeats itself multiple times, none of which is that scary, gory, s3xy or fun - which is probably what you're hoping for in a horror movie.

6/10 Should probably keep you awake if Freddy Krueger was haunting your nights
